ICD-10 code for bladder gonorrhea

The ICD-10-CM code for bladder gonorrhea is A54.01 (Gonococcal cystitis and urethritis, unspecified).

Within A54.0, choose A54.01 (Gonococcal cystitis and urethritis, unspecified) only when documentation doesn't support a more specific option: gonococcal infection of lower genitourinary tract, unspecified (A54.00), gonococcal vulvovaginitis, unspecified (A54.02), gonococcal cervicitis, unspecified (A54.03) and other gonococcal infection of lower genitourinary tract (A54.09).

As a secondary diagnosis it is a CC (complication or comorbidity), which can move an inpatient stay into the "with CC" MS-DRG of its family, unless the principal diagnosis excludes it.

In MS-DRG v44.0, it is part of the grouping logic for DRG 689 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Infections with MCC, relative weight 1.1415) and DRG 690 (Kidney and Urinary Tract Infections without MCC, relative weight 0.801), in MDC 11 (Diseases and Disorders of the Kidney and Urinary Tract), as a principal or secondary diagnosis. The DRG a claim lands in depends on the principal diagnosis, procedures and any CC/MCC secondary diagnoses.
